127: Quest Changes

“After this period of exploration, we have gathered most of the specific intelligence regarding these two planets. So, what are your thoughts on the subsequent actions for these two planets?”

Li Yang sat at the main seat in the Command Room, his gaze sweeping over A Zhi, Su Xia, and Wang Gang in turn, awaiting their answers.

“Actually, we don’t have any ideas right now…”

Wang Gang scratched his head a bit awkwardly, a embarrassed smile appearing on his face, his voice tinged with helplessness.

“Hmm?”

Li Yang frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes as he stared intently at Wang Gang.

He secretly thought to himself, this kid just earned himself some points for that important discovery, how could he seem to be dropping the ball now?

“Teacher, it’s like this.”

Su Xia, seeing the unfavorable situation, quickly stepped forward to explain. She organized her thoughts and continued methodically.

“Our Academy’s graduation process is a bit different from other places. Because our graduation mission hasn’t been officially issued by the Academy yet, we really don’t know what specific actions to take regarding these two planets at the moment.”

Then, Su Xia explained to Li Yang.

It turned out that, according to the Academy’s regulations, when Students discover a civilization during their exploration, they need to report it to the Academy promptly according to a specific procedure.

The Academy would then consider various factors such as the type and level of the civilization reported by the Students, and comprehensively assess them before assigning corresponding graduation missions to the Students.

Although the core objective of most missions was to occupy the civilization, the Academy would put forward various specific requirements during the process of completing the mission. These requirements involved all aspects of the operation, aiming to comprehensively assess the Students' overall capabilities.

“Alright, in that case, let’s wait until your Academy issues the mission, and then we’ll make a decision,” Li Yang said with a helpless wave of his hand after listening to Su Xia’s explanation, his mind now clear.

Of course, during this period of waiting for the Academy to issue the mission, Li Yang naturally wouldn't let time pass in vain.

He quickly deployed and began to arrange for a large number of Imitation Imperial Soldiers to enter Planet B.

These Imitation Imperial Soldiers dispersed to various corners of Planet B, conducting a more in-depth and detailed investigation into this mysterious xuanhuan civilization world, striving to obtain more valuable information.

Just like that, a week passed quietly in waiting and exploration.

Li Yang sat in the Command Room as usual, observing the images transmitted back through the Imitation Imperial Soldiers' perspective.

Suddenly, the AI's notification sound broke his tranquility.

“Beep… mission has changed, please check.”

“A change? Please don’t change my reward away…”

Li Yang’s heart tightened slightly, he mumbled to himself, and quickly opened the mission interface to check.

The mission interface clearly displayed:

“Mission Requirement: Go to the Lanstan Star System to serve as an assessment teacher for three Xili Empire Supreme Military Academy Students, assist in investigating the Subspace World, and occupy the world within it.

(Mission Change: For the xuanhuan civilization it reported, the requirement is to extract the energy orbs (precious items) of its civilization’s race.)

Mission Rewards: A spot for advanced studies at the Xili Empire Supreme Military Academy, 30 million star coins, 10,000 military merit, a 5-level increase in military rank, and the choice of any starship at the Imperial Port Space Station in the Lanstan Star System.”

After reading the detailed content of the mission change, Li Yang’s slightly worried face instantly lit up with joy.

After all, not only did the mission rewards not decrease this time, but they also increased significantly, which was undoubtedly a great and much-desired good thing for him.

Li Yang’s eyes sparkled with excitement, and he already began to plan how to better complete this new mission and pocket these generous rewards.

Li Yang looked at the mission requirement regarding extracting the orbs (precious items) of its civilization’s race and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

One must know that these orbs (precious items) are all located inside the bodies of that civilization’s race. If this mission were to be completed, wouldn’t it mean almost completely slaughtering this civilization?

This was not an easy decision; after all, every civilization has its value and meaning. But if the Empire demanded it, Li Yang would certainly comply without question. As for slaughter? It wasn't as if he hadn't done it before... Meanwhile, on the other side, A Zhi, Su Xia, and Wang Gang also simultaneously received notifications for their graduation mission from the Academy.

When they opened the mission interface, they saw the clearly displayed content:

“Graduation Mission Requirement: Assist the assessment teacher in occupying two civilizations in Subspace.”

Upon seeing this mission requirement, the three of them were instantly stunned, as if they couldn’t believe their eyes.

“Is the mission wrong?”

A Zhi widened his eyes, looking at his two companions with a puzzled expression.

“According to common sense, shouldn’t the teacher assist us in completing the mission? How come this time it’s us assisting the teacher?”

A Zhi was full of doubts and couldn't understand why the Academy would make such an arrangement.

“Why are you looking at me? I don’t know either.”

Su Xia rolled her eyes at A Zhi, clearly also very surprised by this mission arrangement and equally clueless.

“Isn’t it good?”

Wang Gang, however, appeared quite calm, shrugging indifferently and saying.

“This way, the mission difficulty is actually reduced quite a bit, and it will be easier for us to pass the graduation assessment.”

In Wang Gang’s view, no matter how the mission format changed, as long as they could successfully graduate in the end, it was a good thing. He didn't dwell on the specific requirements of the mission, only focusing on the outcome... A moment later, in the Command Room, Li Yang, A Zhi, Su Xia, and Wang Gang gathered together again.

“You should have already received your graduation mission, right?”

Li Yang’s gaze swept over the three of them one by one as he asked.

After all, even his own mission had undergone such significant changes, so he speculated that the Academy must have already arranged corresponding missions for these three Students.

“Yes, Teacher, the Academy has issued the graduation mission. The mission requires us to assist you in occupying two civilizations.”

Su Xia quickly replied.

Hearing Su Xia’s answer, Li Yang wasn’t particularly surprised by it.

After all, given the strength displayed by that Level 2 xuanhuan civilization, if A Zhi and his two companions were solely responsible for the cleanup operation, it might not be successfully completed.

This civilization had a unique cultivation system, and the strength of its powerhouses was not to be underestimated; a slight misstep could lead to difficulties.

Subsequently, Li Yang also recounted the detailed requirements of his mission to the three of them, emphasizing the crucial requirement of extracting the orbs (precious items) of the civilization’s race.

“Extracting racial orbs (precious items)?”

Upon hearing Li Yang state this requirement, A Zhi, Su Xia, and Wang Gang couldn’t help but exchange glances.
